Former President Donald J. Trump responded to the disputed testimony given to the Jan 6 Committee by Cassidy Hutchinson concerning his interaction with Secret Service personnel.
Cassidy Hutchinson is a former aide to Trump White House chief of staff Mark Meadows.
Undermining the credibility of Hutchinson, and perhaps the Jan 6 Committee, two Secret Service agents have indicated “they are prepared to testify before Congress that then-President Trump did not lunge at a steering wheel or assault them in an attempt to go to the Capitol during the January 6 protest,” according to The Freedom Times.
In typical Trumpian prose, the former President wrote:
“I hardly know who this person, Cassidy Hutchinson, is, other than I heard very negative things about her (a total phony and “leaker”), and when she requested to go with certain others of the team to Florida after my having served a full term in office, I personally turned her request down. Why did she want to go with us if she felt we were so terrible? I understand that she was very upset and angry that I didn’t want her to go, or be a member of the team. She is bad news!”
Trump continued: “Never complained about the crowd, it was massive. I didn’t want or request that we make room for people with guns to watch my speech. Who would ever want that? Not me! Besides, there were no guns found or brought into the Capitol Building…So where were all of these guns? But sadly, a gun was used on Ashli Babbitt, with no price to pay against the person who used it!”
During her testimony, Hutchinson claimed that Mark Meadows was told, before Jan. 6, that people in the crowd had “knives,” “guns,” “spears,” and more.
